To avoid having to either hard-code or manually configure service addresses (possibly several dozen), and to reduce the project's dependency on docker to deal with routing and discovery, the option to use [Zookeeper](https://zookeeper.apache.org/) to manage services and discovery has been added.
A service registry interface was added, with a Zookeeper implementation and a basic implementation that only works on docker and hard-codes everything.
The last remaining REST service, the assistant-service, has been migrated to gRPC.
This also proved a good time to clear out primordial technical debt from the root of the codebase. The 'service-client' library has been taken behind the barn and given a last farewell. It's replaced by a small library for managing gRPC channels.
Since it's no longer used by anything, RxJava has been removed as a dependency from the project.
Although the current state seems reasonably stable, this is a work-in-progress commit.
This improves query times, and gets rid of exceptions in the logs when one of the index nodes doesn't have any data loaded, yet is configured to answer queries.
* Added new (optional) model file in $WMSA_HOME/data/atags.parquet
* Converter gets a component for creating a projection of its domains onto the full atags parquet file
* New WordFlag ExternalLink
* These terms are also for now flagged as title words
* Fixed a bug where Title words aliased with UrlDomain words
* Fixed a bug in the encyclopedia sideloader that gave everything too high topology ranking
This was caused by a bug in the binary search algorithm causing it to sometimes return positive values when encoding a search miss.
It was also necessary to get rid of the vestiges of the old LongArray and IntArray classes to make this fix doable.
* (index-reverse) Parallel construction of the reverse indexes.
* (array) Remove wasteful calculation of numDistinct before merging two sorted arrays.
* (index-reverse) Force changes to disk on close, reduce logging.
* (index-reverse) Clean up merging process and add back logging
* (run) Add a conservative default for INDEX_CONSTRUCTION_PROCESS_OPTS's parallelism as it eats a lot of RAM
* (index-reverse) Better logging during processing
* (array) 2GB+ compatible write() function
* (array) 2GB+ compatible write() function
* (index-reverse) We are logging like Bolsonaro and I will not have it.
* (reverse-index) Self-diagnostics
* (btree) Fix bug in btree reader to do with large data sizes
Further de-ByteBuffer:ing of these classes is to be done, but this is the smallest most urgently needed benefit.
This commit is a WIP but in a fully working state, pushing due to the importance of the changes to offer lifecycle control over mmaps.
... also move some common configuration into the root build.gradle-file.
Support for JDK21 in lombok is a bit sketchy at the moment, but it seems to work. This upgrade is kind of important as the new index construction really benefits from Arena based lifecycle control over off-heap memory.
This is a system-wide change. The index used to have a lexicon, mapping words to wordIds using a large in-memory hash table. This made index-construction easier, but it
also added a fairly significant RAM penalty to both the index service and the loader.
The new design moves to 64 bit word identifiers calculated using the murmur hash of the keyword, and an index construction based on merging smaller indices.
It also became necessary half-way through to upgrade guice as its error reporting wasn't *quite* compatible with JDK20.
This provides a much cleaner separation of concerns, and makes it possible to get rid of a lot of the gunkier parts of the index service. It will also permit lowering the Xmx on the index service a fair bit, so we can get CompressedOOps again :D
Deprecate the LoadUrl instruction entirely. We no longer need to be told upfront about which URLs to expect, as IDs are generated from the domain id and document ordinal.
For now, we no longer store new URLs in different domains. We need to re-implement this somehow, probably in a different job or a as a different output.
